Common Questions

How much does concrete flatwork typically run?
Pricing depends on the size of the project, site conditions, and material choices. Rather than guess, let us come out and give you a free estimate — we'll walk through everything and give you an exact price.
How long will my project take?
It depends on the scope, but a typical concrete flatwork job in Crystal takes 1–3 working days once we start. Weather can push things — we won't pour if conditions aren't right, because cutting that corner costs you in the long run.
How do I get a quote?
Completely free. We come to your property in Crystal, measure everything, talk through your options, and leave you with a detailed quote. If you go with someone else, no hard feelings.
Are you guys licensed and insured?
Absolutely. We're registered with the state (MN #IR2025-810827), carry comprehensive liability, and have workers' comp for every crew member. It's not optional in this business — it's table stakes.
What makes Legacy GS different?
Honestly? We just do good work and treat people fairly. We're not a big operation with a marketing budget — most of our Crystal work comes from referrals and repeat clients. That tells you something.
Can you pour concrete in cold weather?
We pour from roughly April through November in Minnesota. We can extend into colder months with blankets and additives, but the sweet spot is May through October. Tree roots from Crystal's mature oaks and elms are one of the biggest reasons we get called out for sidewalk and driveway work

What People Say About Our Work

Had several sections of sunken concrete around my house. Legacy leveled everything perfectly using foam injection. Quick, clean, and much more affordable than replacement. Highly recommend!

We hired Legacy for our garage addition foundation and couldn't be happier. They handled all the permits, showed up when they said they would, and the work quality is outstanding. Will definitely use them again.

Our old cracked patio was an eyesore. Legacy came in, removed the old concrete, and poured a beautiful new stamped patio. The transformation is incredible! Worth every penny.

Red Flags to Watch For

If you're on the fence about whether your concrete needs attention, check for these.

1

Cracks That Keep Growing

Anything wider than a quarter inch, or cracks that are visibly getting longer — those won't stop on their own.

2

Sunken or Heaved Sections

Trip hazards from settled slabs usually mean the base underneath has eroded or shifted.

3

Surface Flaking and Pitting

When the top layer is coming apart, it's usually freeze-thaw damage from missing or worn sealer.

4

Water Pooling on the Concrete

If water sits instead of draining off, the slope is wrong and it's accelerating damage.

5

It's Just Old

Concrete in Minnesota has a realistic lifespan of 25-30 years. After that, repair costs start outweighing replacement.

6

Previous Patches That Didn't Hold

Failed repairs usually mean the underlying problem wasn't addressed the first time.

Should You Fix It or Start Fresh?

We'll always tell you straight — if repair will hold up, we'll say so. If it won't, we'll explain why replacement makes more sense.

Repair When:

  • Cracks are hairline or less than ¼ inch
  • Damage is limited to the surface only
  • Concrete is less than 20 years old
  • Settlement is minor and localized
  • The base/subgrade is still in good condition

Replace When:

  • More than 50% of surface shows damage
  • Multiple sections have settled unevenly
  • Concrete is severely cracked throughout
  • Tree roots have caused extensive heaving
  • The concrete is over 25-30 years old
